Is it better to punish perceived racism so harshly that it practically disappears, or to improve the confidence of minorities so that racist incidents don't bother them?
White liberals prefer the punitive approach to the "resilience option" by more than two to one (71-29%), according to a new report by a politics professor based on nearly three years of original surveys of Americans.
In contrast, a majority of blacks (53%) favors resilience — a society where "racially offensive remarks no longer affect them" because of their increased confidence — rather than harsh punishment (47%).
Developing that confidence is less likely, however, if they read works informed by critical race theory.
One of the surveys found a 15-point gap between black respondents who agreed they "could make their life plans work out" after reading a passage from black pessimist writer Ta-Nehisi Coates (68%), compared to those who didn't read the passage (83%). Political scientist Wilfred Reilly at historically black Kentucky State University called this the "worst finding" of the report by the University of London's Eric Kaufmann.....
Those who report being "sad or anxious" at least half the time are also "far more likely to report experiencing racism and discrimination," Kaufmann found. The saddest and most anxious whites and blacks both report experiencing about 20 points more racism than do the happier and calmer members of their respective racial groupings.....

Not surprising....they’re insane leftist liberals.
They’re totally insane and hate themselves.
Then, they project their hate onto others.
They belong in an insane asylum...ALL of em.
It’s a chronic, no-cure mental disease.
So woke. 🤮
Liberals use everything as weapons. I think it is why most people don’t feel like they are racist when they are around black people. I work for and with black people every day and I don’t feel like they think I am a racist because I am white but white liberals make us worry about such things.
Just had a crazy thought.
A comparison.
Racism being a catch all accusation to destroy a person. What is racism? Well, all depends, anything, really.
Article 58 of the Soviet Penal Code was a catch all to destroy people and send them to the GULAG.
So racism, as defined by the latest version of Newspeak, is the same as the old Soviet Article 58.

Except they aren't liberals.
Right now the greatest threat and enemy to the Republic and the world is the WHITE LIBERAL.
Anteefer Snowflakes and the Taylor Swifter Princesses.
No, they just want to get back at mom and dad.
“White liberals want to punish racism more harshly...”
Sure they do - just so long as it doesn’t cost them any money. (Limousine liberals move in droves to Florida and Texas.)
Racist BEHAVIOR does need to be punished. The thought crime of racism does not.
Years ago these deplorable thieves were called ‘poverty pimps’ and were roundly accused of callously using the misery and misfortune of Blacks to gain personal notoriety or burnish political prospects. Our degenerate media elevated many of these race hustlers to ‘Leaders in the Black Community,’ and made them out to be champions for equality among the races, when actually they were just common crooks with their snouts in the public trough.
Now ideologically allied with America hating and power mad Socialists, Communists, and Anarchists in the Democrat Party a new generation of Stormtroopers, dupes, and fellow travelers, trained in the dark arts of street violence is spearheading an open assault on law enforcement, government institutions, and election integrity. Their goal is the naked power of one-party rule, and they are giddy with anticipation.
There’s a reason white liberal elites want to damage white people on the ladder beneath them - and it’s ugly. We’re talking the people born on third who’s parents sent them (IQ 102) to private schools to take jobs in DC they’re NOT qualifed to do... (and they know they’re not qualified...’ )
Hitting them with ‘racist’ labels is like kneecapping. Same as the democrats in the South who kept blacks down 50 years ago... now they keep working class whites down... Ugly people...
“...now they keep working class whites down... Ugly people...”
No argument there...other than “ugly” is being waaay too kind.
But this crap didn’t just start recently. It’s been going on for years thru the use of the federal income tax debacle and inflation.
Using those “tools”, they make darn sure that the working class, especially middle class whites, NEVER achieve any real true wealth. They’re slaves. Cattle to be “milked” every April 15th. Why there hasn’t been an outright nationwide tax revolt is beyond me...buy hey, at least the orange man isn’t sending out mean tweets to people now.
